Interior equipment Integrated universal remote control* The concept This system can replace up to three different hand-held transmitters for various types of re‐ mote-controlled equipment, such as garage doors or lighting systems. The hand-held transmitter signal can be pro‐ grammed on one of the three memory buttons. The corresponding device can then be operated using the programmed memory button. The LED indicates that a signal is being trans‐ mitted. When selling the vehicle, delete the stored pro‐ grams for security reasons. During programming During programming and before activat‐ ing a device using the universal remote control, ensure that there are no people, animals, or ob‐ jects in the range of movement of the remote- controlled device; otherwise, there is a risk of injury or damage. Also follow the safety instructions of the hand- held transmitter.◀
Compatibility
If this symbol is printed on the packaging or in the instructions of the hand-held transmitter, the remote-controlled de‐ vice is generally compatible with the universal remote control. If you have any questions, please contact: ▷ Your service center. ▷ www.homelink.com on the Internet.

Things to remember when driving Breaking-in period General information Moving parts need to be broken in to adjust to each other. The following instructions will help achieve a long vehicle life and good economy. Engine and differential Always obey the official speed limit. Up to 1,200 miles/2,000 km Do not exceed the maximum engine and road speed: ▷ For gasoline engine, 4500 rpm and
300 miles/500 km. During this break-in period, engage the clutch gently. Following part replacement The same breaking in procedures should be ob‐ served if any of the components mentioned above have to be renewed in the course of the vehicle's operating life.
General driving notes Closing the trunk lid
Drive with the trunk lid closed Only drive with the tailgate closed; other‐ wise, in the event of an accident or braking or evasive maneuvers, passengers or other road users may be injured or the vehicle may be dam‐ aged. In addition, exhaust fumes may enter the passenger compartment.◀ If driving with the tailgate open cannot be avoided: ▷ Close all windows and the glass sunroof*. ▷ Greatly increase the blower speed. ▷ Drive moderately. Hot exhaust system Hot exhaust system High temperatures are generated in the
exhaust system. Do not remove the heat shields installed and never apply undercoating to them. When driv‐ ing, standing at idle and while parking, take care to avoid possible contact between the hot ex‐ haust system and any highly flammable materi‐ als such as hay, leaves, grass, etc. Such contact could lead to a fire, and with it the risk of serious personal injury as well as property damage.
